I remember someone else posting this poll question before, Im a non namer but I once named my albino cory crazy al, because he used to swim up and down the tank all day, so I spose im sitting on the fence for this one, I call my male turq, big fella some times, does this count :P

[DR.V]

Too many to be named :P

I`ll get confused myself ^_-

[glstine]

I name some of them, my dominant discus is named Brutus and I have a percula clown that my 5 yr old has named... imagine this Nemo. (wonder how many clown fish there are named Nemo)

[sleepers]

Yeah, I pretty much name all my discus...

[Proteus]

Most of mine have names

From Chunk, to Spot, Nawty, Bunga, Red, Whitie, etc etc

Some of them I do but not all.

My Female Pigeon Blood I call Princess, My Marlboro Red I call Marly, My Blue Turquoise is Turky, Female Blue Diamond, Red Turquoise and my Gold Pigeon/Red Marlboro Cross have no names and my Gold Pigeon is called Mr Nasty because he picks on the Pigeon Cross all the time.

I haven't bothered with names for my brsitlenose, tetras etc in the community tank, but I have a large Knife Fish (called Knifie) and a large Clown Loach (called Loachie), so as you can see, all my fish have very "Original" names!!.

we have a black ghost knife called Stanley.... pmsl

I am very boring,
names go by age, like
wrigglers
fry
juvies
and the adults go by their colour variation, like,

blue diamonds
snake skins
rsg

well, i guess you get the picture!
i am very boring but they do get named!

I named my BGK "Bowie" because, well, he's a knife. But also because there's a Phish song called "David Bowie" that I like a lot.

I named my 11-12" pleco Cheney 'cause he's mean and hides a lot (Aussies may not get that).

The discus all have names too...

I consider naming fish to be bad luck. I picked up the superstition as a kid when I was first starting to keep fish, and my favorite would inevitably die of Ich.
